Aged for a year in Oregon pinot noir barrels, our dark Belgian-style ale develops complex flavors remininscent of dried fruit, vanilla and sherry. The French oak provides tannic counterbalance to the syrupy dark candi sugar. And like its unaged counterpart, its vibrant reddish-black hue, substantial body and pleasant headiness give it an alluring first impression—but watch your back. This beer has done hard time.

Bottle. Brewed in 2013. Creamy nose with cherries, chocolate, some vanilla. Deep crimson color, cloudy, with lace. Cherry flavor, caramel, vanilla, sweet and sour. Rather sparkling body. Booze is amazingly well hidden. Very smooth and creamy. Some nice tropical fruit coming through as well. Very complex and delicious.
